Guaranteeing a hefty one and a half million dollars, the PokerStars Sunday Million is the largest online poker tournament!
By playing a guarantee of $1,500,000 on this event PokerStars is forced to offer a prizepool of this size regardless of the amount of entrants participating!

The Sunday Millionss the tournament is called in the lobby starts every Sunday at 9:30PM GMT. With a buyin of $215, this tournament may not be suitable for everybody’s pocket, although there are numerous ways to snag yourself an entry ticket on the cheap and we’ll suggest the best Sunday Million satellites to you further on in this article.

One of the reason for the continued success of the PokerStars Sunday Million is that it is set up in a way that benefits players of a high skill level.
Ten thousand starting chips and fifteen minute blinds allow players to ease their way in to the poker tournament without feeling pressured by short blind levels.
The payout structure rewards players finishing in the top fifteen percent of the total number of participants, although to get in to the serious money you’ll have to make the top five percent, which is by no means an easy feat to accomplish.
If you happen to make it this far, your sight should be set on the final table, which will normally mean a minimum of a five figure payout!
As with most online poker tournaments the payout structure is top heavy, meaning that the prize pool is awarded heavily in favour of the top performers, and this is shown with the amount the winner takes home.
A typical 1st prize given to the winner is often around twelve percent of the total prize pool, which works out at a mouth watering $180,000!

PokerStars is by far the best site to play at if your on a small budget but still looking to win in a online poker tournament.
PokerStars offers satellites to the Sunday Million that range in buy in from $2.20 right up to $70, with the satellites with larger buyins awarding more entry’s and lower buyin tournaments awarding fewer.

Although this may seem like a lottery more then a tournament to many players as you will encounter many weak unskilled players here!
The top 2 players receive a Sunday Million entry token, whilst third place picks up $2 for their efforts.

Our Favourite Sunday Million Multi Table tournament satellite, is the $39 tournament which runs daily at 5:35PM GMT.
The tournament provides entrants with a slow structure, 15 minute blinds.
Although this tournament attracts players of a higher skill level then the $2.20 triple shootout, you’ll still find some weak opposition enter.
